Mansour: The adoption of 7 resolutions in favor of Palestine is a clear international message to stop settlement and end the occupation.

The Permanent Representative of the State of Palestine to the United Nations, Riyad Mansour, thanked the countries for their principled stance and their explicit rejection and condemnation of the policies of occupation, following the overwhelming adoption by the Fourth Committee of the United Nations General Assembly of 7 resolutions in favor of Palestine.

Mansour emphasized that this vote serves as an international message for the implementation of UN resolutions, including Security Council Resolution 2334, and for taking practical measures to halt settlement activities, end the occupation, and provide protection for the Palestinian people, their institutions, and their holy sites.

The Fourth Committee of the United Nations General Assembly had adopted four resolutions related to the United Nations Relief and Works Agency for Palestine Refugees in the Near East (UNRWA), and three resolutions concerning the Special Committee investigating Israeli practices that affect the human rights of the Palestinian people.
